Total system crash? Running glxgears...
Not cool...
I've spent thousands of dollars on nvidia graphics cards in the past, mostly to run folding@Home on..
I haven't given nvidia a single cent since they released optimus and neglected linux support.

Good luck having properly working power management if it's an AMD card. I haven't read of anyone having such hardware in their laptop working right (with regards to PM). Other features probably don't work either.

Pure Intel might be the only option or disabling the AMD side except that kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it? It just shows neither AMD nor Nvidia support Linux, really.

Fglrx is pretty broken as it is and yet so far behind the curve, and nvidia just talking the talk about OSS with Optimus but nothing more than that, so you may be right in that Intel is the only company that got a clue
